New to soccer (or as the rest of the world calls it - football)? So am I! This is my place to share thoughts about the sport and news and commentary about the clubs I'm following. Who am I following? LA Galaxy, IF Elfsborg, Falkenbergs FF, Liverpool FC, and LAFC. Send comments to rrblog[at]yahoo[dot]com.

I don't think the President echoed the Occupy message per se. More like he is addressing what he interprets is the source of their frustration. Indeed, he also acknowledges frustration from the Tea Party as well, in this and other speeches. He is merely responding to the people which I think is a good thing.

As to your question of how much government we should have, may be we can use this guideline from the President's SOTU speech?

"That Government should do for people only what they cannot do better by themselves, and no more."
